How do I change the index page of my site?
Because of the way httpd(8)
is set up, you'll need to ask in #institute
or send
- an email to admins@tilde.institute
admins@tilde.institute
Can you install this package for me?
As long as it's in the OpenBSD ports tree, and doesn't facilitate any potentially malicious behavior
- (like nmap
),
- then it's probably not a big deal. Either hop on IRC and ask in #institute
or send an email
- to admins@tilde.institute
If you compile something on your own that you know you shouldn't be running (like a bittorrent client or a - cryptocurrency miner), then you can expect to be summarily ejected from the server.

How do I authenticate with SMTP remotely?
Only local access to SMTP is allowed. However, you can use an SSH tunnel on your machine to send mail.
You won't need to supply a username or password when sending mail via localhost:25
this way,
- since you're already authenticated via SSH.
Can you whitelist a port for me in the firewall?
Sorry, but this presents too much of a security risk on a public-access system.
Are user services allowed?
-Generally, yes. If you're running something that's using a ton of resources or in some way affecting
- other users or the general use of the system,
- then we'll kill it. Just be aware of what you're running and how it may affect the system and other
- users, and if you think something will be using a bunch of CPU, please renice
the process.

Are IRC bots allowed?
Yes, though there are restrictions on their use on the tilde.chat
IRC network. They should
- not reside in #meta
, instead keep
- them in a private channel or in #bots
. Bots must also conform to the bot guidelines listed
- here.
Don't run eggdrop
from tilde.institute. There are legitimate uses for eggdrop
,
- but separating the people with some kind
- of legitimate use from malicious users is tiring. So, no eggdrop
.
